Avatar losing at the Emmies

So I was thinking this week about Avatar losing out to Precious at the Emmies and, like most geeks, feel that James Cameron got ripped off.  I mean, I’m sure Precious was great and all (haven’t seen it yet.  Looks like it could be a bummer, and not in the cool “aliens win and destroy humanity” bummer.  I’ve seen Avatar 4 times) but I have to ask myself, “What movie will I buy on DvD and watch another 100 times in my lifetime?”  The answer to that is, of course, Avatar.

I think Avatar will end up making perfect painting background material, much like the whole Lord of the Rings is.  I can only hope they offer an extended version with a lot of deleted scenes inserted into the body of the movie.  I hate it when you have click on each extra scene in the menu and then try to figure out where it was supposed to go.  If I wanted to interact with my TV I would be watching cable and channel surfing.

The other 3D movie I need to see is the new Alice in Wonderland.  The Johnny Depp poster looks kind of freaky, but I think it will be great.  Speaking of that poster, I have it coming in as a t shirt soon (I hope).  Meanwhile, I just got this cool Alice in Wonderland Zenescope t shirt, which will have to go into my comic book t shirts section, as Zenescope is a really cool indy comic book producer.  I think I am going to look for a couple of trade on this series.
